Kim Jong-il, the eccentric dictator who ruled North Korea with an iron-fist for 17 years, has died. North Korea’s National television confirmed this last night. Tweeps (twitter peeps) wasted no time reacting to the Dictator’s death.

While some tweets were either sad or happy, a majority of the tweet that we observed on the wire were downright hilarious, all the way up to popular tweeps like @Prince__Harry, the crown prince of Great Britain, who tweeted.

While it is not right to make fun of someone after they are dead, I think these tweeps who tweeted about Kim Jong-il’s death feel that he has earned it.

If you are one of these tweeps, @AdrianChen has a warning for all of you…
